Schnyder woods are particularly elegant combinatorial structures with numerous applications concerning planar triangulations and more generally 3-connected planar maps. We propose a simple generalization of Schnyder woods from the plane to…
A strict orthogonal drawing of a graph $G=(V, E)$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is a drawing of $G$ such that each vertex is mapped to a distinct point and each edge is mapped to a horizontal or vertical line segment. A graph $G$ is $HV$-restricted if…
Compacting orthogonal drawings is a challenging task. Usually algorithms try to compute drawings with small area or edge length while preserving the underlying orthogonal shape. We present a one-dimensional compaction algorithm that alters…
In the present work the rooted and unrooted d-regular maps on 2-dimentional oriented surfaces of genus g are enumerated. Separately and in more detail the case of d-regular maps with a single face are considered.
A corner in a map is an edge-vertex-edge triple consisting of two distinct edges incident to the same vertex. A corneration is a set of corners that covers every arc of the map exactly once. Cornerations in a dart-transitive map generalize…
We derive a minimal generating set of planar moves for diagrams of surfaces embedded in the four-space. These diagrams appear as the bonded classical unlink diagrams.
Invariant manifolds of unstable periodic orbits organize the dynamics of chaotic orbits in phase space. They provide insight into the mechanisms of transport and chaotic advection and have important applications in physical situations…
Classes of branched surfaces extend the classes of surfaces or 2-dimensional manifolds satisfying suitable properties and defined in various manners. Reeb spaces of smooth maps of suitable classes into surfaces whose codimensions are…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of Pfaffian orientations on (punctured) polygonally cellulated orientable surfaces, and provide an expression for the number of such orientations. This generalizes the notion of Pfaffian orientations…
A graph drawn in the plane with straight-line edges is called a geometric graph. If no path of length at most $k$ in a geometric graph $G$ is self-intersecting we call $G$ $k$-locally plane. The main result of this paper is a construction…
When can a plane graph with prescribed edge lengths and prescribed angles (from among $\{0,180^\circ, 360^\circ$\}) be folded flat to lie in an infinitesimally thin line, without crossings? This problem generalizes the classic theory of…
A result is given to find points where a real valued function on the plane is not smooth. Provided this function is induced by a smooth mapping from three dimensions to the plane, from a function on surfaces in three dimensions. This has…
The object-oriented class is, in general, the most utilized element in programming and modeling. It is employed throughout the software development process, from early domain analysis phases to later maintenance phases. A class diagram…
We investigate the use of conformal maps for the acceleration of convergence of the trapezoidal rule and Sinc numerical methods. The conformal map is a polynomial adjustment to the $\sinh$ map, and allows the treatment of a finite number of…
We present a matrix-based algorithm for deciding if the parametrization of a curve or a surface is invertible or not, and for computing the inverse of the parametrization if it exists.
A class of surfaces-graphs in a Riemannian 3-space with a prescribed projection of one field of principal directions onto a surface $\Pi$ is considered. A problem of determination of such surfaces when both principal curvatures are given…
A zigzag in a map (a $2$-cell embedding of a connected graph in a connected closed $2$-dimensional surface) is a cyclic sequence of edges satisfying the following conditions: 1) any two consecutive edges lie on the same face and have a…
We consider maps which preserve functions which are built out of the invariants of some simple vector fields. We give a reduction procedure, which can be used to derive commuting maps of the plane, which preserve the same symplectic form…
Graph Drawing Beyond Planarity is a rapidly growing research area that classifies and studies geometric representations of non-planar graphs in terms of forbidden crossing configurations. Aim of this survey is to describe the main research…
An ortho-radial grid is described by concentric circles and straight-line spokes emanating from the circles' center. An ortho-radial drawing is the analog of an orthogonal drawing on an ortho-radial grid. Such a drawing has an unbounded…
